Celebrating over 80 years of…Creating Family Memories, Fishing & Fun!

For nearly a century, fisherman have plied our magnificent waters, families & friends have shared unforgettable vacation times and children have reveled in the wonders of nature. We are Northern Lights Resort & Outfitting, one of the finest Minnesota Lake Resorts. We are centrally located on beautiful Lake Kabetogama and the chain of lakes that comprise Voyaguers National Park — the only National Park within Minnesota. If you like the Boundary Waters Canoe Area (BWCA), you will love our area.

Our resort grounds have a rich history in our border lake area. At the turn of the century a saw mill operated here on the shores of the lake. The first resort owners purchased the land in 1935 and established Pike Bend Resort, which eventually became Northern Lights. Our resort was the first to offer kayak rentals on Lake Kabetogama and one of the current owners loves to pick up a paddle too!

Today, we take pride in continuing the tradition of being one of the finest family & fishing lake resorts in Minnesota.

Plan your next vacation with us and explore the 65 miles of forested waterways through the Voyageurs National Park. Indulge in the peace of an afternoon kayaking trip, or keep your eyes open for the incredible eagles soaring overhead as you cast your line in the bountiful waters of Lake Kabetogama. Make memories of a lifetime with friends and family at an evening cook-out and roast s’mores around your own cabin’s fire ring!

It’s never to early to plan your next lake vacation or Minnesota fishing getaway to Northern Lights Resort.
